Weber Launches New Charcoal Briquettes For 2017 Grilling Season

PALATINE, Ill., May 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Like peanut butter and jelly, or coffee and donuts, some things just go together so well you wonder why they were ever apart.

Now, Weber-Stephen Products LLC, the world's largest manufacturer of charcoal, gas and electric grills and grilling accessories, announced they are launching new Weber Briquettes—the perfect partner for Weber's iconic charcoal grills and smokers. 

The new 20-lb. bags of Weber Briquettes, made from 100 percent all natural hardwood, provide a long, consistent heat—requiring less need to refuel during grilling. 

"Over 90 percent of charcoal grillers want charcoal that provides consistent heat.  It is important for grillers to feel confident they are using briquettes that will provide the ultimate performance on their grill," says Melissa Enos, Vice President Americas Marketing, Weber-Stephen Products LLC.  "Weber Briquettes provide the consistent heat consumers want." 

More importantly, Weber Briquettes are made from 100 percent all natural hardwood and do not include any unwanted chemical binders or fillers. The Weber Briquettes come in a weather-protected re-sealable bag that features a handy zip top to help protect charcoal from the elements.

The new Weber Briquettes retail for $24.99 MSRP and are available where Weber grills are sold.
